Abstract
Numerical simulation of the consolidation test was developed in different drainage conditions using the finite difference method. Soil sample was divided into layers to determine the time-steps of the test. A series of simulation tests were carried out to study the influence of drainage height on the coefficient ratio. Finally, some experiments data were compared with the numerical simulation results. Numerical results indicate that the simulation method broke through the limitation of test apparatus, and made it possible to conduct big size specimen consolidation test under certain conditions.
